Dare i say this is my favorite c-drama yet compared to other higher-rated ones from this year. It is a slow-burn friends to lovers with irresistible butterflies from the leads chemistry.
I dont prefer love triangles, and didnt care much for the second lead's romance, but that didnt bother me since the main romance was as natural as it could be. There was an unspoken yet simply undeniable bond between the two leads, building up from just being neighbours, to inseparable your-problem-is-my-problem best friends. And as if i needed my standards to be any higher, xi chi is there to show us what it's really like to unconditionally care for someone with all your being.

I could mention the eye-opening commentary each episode brought, their families, friends, dreams.. but honestly, they werent anything extraordinary, and it's the first time i feel that the romance built from all these makes the drama whole as it is. i only wish they got together earlier or we saw more of their university years, but really, what a treat this drama was. brb while i rewatch it while waiting for my xi chi.
